Hi All-
Many thanks for your threads about Nook rooting. I purchased a nook color on Friday, auto-rooted Saturday, and haven't looked back.

I installed Overdrive Media Console and have been able to authorize the app with my ADE account, but when I open download links for an epub from my library page, the link is rendered as text in the browser instead the OMC app to initiate the download.

I've searched the threads and found someone else who experiences this symptom, and one other report of someone successfully running OMC (though they indicate the app runs successfully, they didn't indicate if they've been able to download content yet).

Has anyone been able to download content through OMC, and if so, know how to fix the issue I've described?

Great topic.

I've not been successful at downloading ebooks. I have the same problem "but when I open download links for an epub from my library page, the link is rendered as text in the browser instead the OMC app to initiate the download."

MP3 audiobooks have been successful.

I don't know if it's a rooted NC issue or a general Android app issue. There are some Android apps that just don't work on the rooted NC. The NOOK Android app is an example.

Well I answered my own question from Overdrive's FAQ for Android, unfortunatly it's not the answer I wanted to find:

OverDrive Media Console for Android supports OverDrive MP3 Audiobooks

Maybe it's just a matter of time then. It's only been a week or two since they updated the iPhone Overdrive app to add ebook functionality. At least in the meantime you can use ADE on your desktop to transfer library books to your NC and read them. I have been reading library books just fine on my NC.

The website also lists devices that are supported. Rooted NC is not there so I can't just contact support and say it's not working on my rooted NC.

I'm waiting to hear from people who have the app on their Android phone or an officially supported Android tablet to chime in. If the app works on these devices then it's an app that just won't work on a rooted NC.
